Just ahead of next week’s premiere of the second season of Marvel Studios’ “What If?”, Disney held a special screening event at the Walt Disney Studios lot on Monday evening of the first two episodes.

The event was introduced by executive producer Brad Winderbaum, head of streaming, television and animation for Marvel Studios, and was followed by a Q&A with filmmakers, including director/EP Bryan Andrews, writer/EP AC Bradley and writer/producer Matthew Chauncey. 

With a new episode debuting nightly beginning December 22nd 2023, the second season of “What If…?” continues the journey as The Watcher guides viewers through the vast multiverse, introducing brand new and familiar faces throughout the MCU. The series questions, revisits and twists classic Marvel Cinematic moments with an incredible voice cast that includes a host of stars who reprise their iconic roles.

Featuring fan-favorite characters this season like Nebula, Hela and Happy Hogan, episodes are directed by Bryan Andrews (eps 2-9) and Stephan Franck (ep 1) and written by AC Bradley (eps 3, 4, 5, 8), Matthew Chauncey (eps 1-3, 7, 9) and Ryan Little (eps 6, 8). The animated series is executive produced by Brad Winderbaum, Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Bryan Andrews and AC Bradley.

At the event, the two episodes shown included:

Episode 1: “What If… Nebula Joined the Nova Corps?”

In a world where Ronan deposes Thanos long before the events of “Infinity War,” Nebula is recruited to join the Nova Corps. Desperate to escape her father’s shadow, she sets out to prove her detective chops.

Episode 3: “What If Happy Hogan Saved Christmas?”

When Justin Hammer lays siege to Avengers Tower during the annual holiday party, there’s only one person left on site to stop him—Happy Hogan. But in setting out to prove his hero chops, Iron Man’s errand boy may end up transforming himself in more ways than one.

Here are some images from the event:
